Both Gateses read scientific books and travel extensively in developing countries. So far,the Gateses have devoted $9 billion to global health.

1. Which of the following does Bill Gates think is not correct?
A. We act sometimes as if the people suffering don't exist.
B. They can't solve these problems alone.
C. Some lives are worth saving and others are not.
D. Government would be doing everything to help people.
答案解析:答案为C。本题为细节题。本题可用排除法。四个选项之中只有C选项“有些生命值得挽救另外一些生命不值得挽救”是慈善家Bill Gates最不会赞同的观点,故答案为C。
2. What does the underlined word “struck” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. hit
B. impressed
C. attacked
D. hurt
答案解析:答案为B。本题为词义猜测题。由第四段划线词语的上下文 “For Melinda,it was a vacation to Zaire.Where she was struck by meeting women in being extremely poor.For Bill,it was reading that millions of children die every year from preventable diseases.”可知,Melinda见到的是极其贫穷的妇女,Bill见到的是成千上万的儿童死于疾病,因此“struck”意思最接近B选项“impressed”,意为“给人印象最深刻的”。
